Fixed width makes it easy to convert, but if you are just querying you
shouldn't have to convert anything.

Just use Find() or something similar...
Refind() is capable of returning multiple results if you need that
instead...

Subject: querying funky text files


I've done it again. I've underbid on a project that's tured out to be a
monster.

I have to query a text file that has fixed-width columns. Anyone pulled this
off before?

Help.
